I spoke to KPM a while ago about this because on KPMLP1299 - Classical Fusion - Graham De Wilde, track 9 should be 20th Century revolution (b), however they have simply uploaded a duplicate of track 8 (The main version).

KPM said that when they digitised the album they used the CD version, which did not include the alternate version (track 9)

Looks like this album isn't the only one to have tracks missing on the CD / Online versions.

You're right. However, I've found a snippet of what sounds like version B of "20th Century Revolution" as it was used in "The Sword of Knowledge" the first chapter of the "Eye of Eternia" story from "4 Masters of the Universe Stories", a Golden Book Video release:

Notice how similar the melody is from version "a"?

That is indeed version B, well done for spotting that,  Steve Wright also used it as his theme when he was on Radio 1.

musictheorist shared this with me a while ago on Discord. Correct soundtrack.

Still waiting on KPM 1273, 1299, 1317 (one half of CD 21), and KPM CD 321.

It's been a long time, but I was able to download TomSmithYT's copy of KPM CD 21 (which includes all tracks from KPM 1317) from his rip of all the Editor's Companion CD's.

Now all we need is:

- "Pathfinders" from KPM 1273 "The Red, White and Blue"
- The correct soundtrack to "20th Century Gothic (b)" from KPM 1299 "Classical Fusion"
- "Techno Fugue" versions b and c from KPM 1333 "Classical Fusion 2"
- The correct soundtrack for "Rock 1" and "Rock 4" from KPM CD 321 "LOGOS, LINKS & STINGS - PART 1"
